True Corporation partners with OYMotion to pioneer Neuro AI innovation

True Corporation and OYMotion have launched a partnership to develop Neuro AI technology that uses brain-computer interfaces to help patients control prosthetics and rehabilitation devices through neural signals. The innovation aims to improve recovery for stroke and paralysis patients while addressing Thailand's shortage of specialized physical therapists. The technology is currently being piloted at leading Thai hospitals with plans to scale across the public health system if successful.

28 Apr Khaosod

True Corporation has partnered with OYMotion to develop Neuro AI technology aimed at improving physical therapy and rehabilitation, the company announced Monday.

The collaboration, spearheaded by True's Research and Innovation Center, merges Brain-Computer Interface (BCI) technology with artificial intelligence and a data platform that allows patients to control smart devices or prosthetics using neural signals transmitted over True's network.

The system converts brain activity into commands, stimulating neural pathways to trigger muscle movement. The approach is designed to support cognitive retraining and speed up recovery compared to traditional therapy, especially for stroke patients and those with paralysis or mobility limitations.

True stated the technology is currently being piloted with patients at major Thai hospitals to assess clinical effectiveness. Subject to positive results, it could be rolled out across the public health system.

The initiative also seeks to address the shortage of specialized physical therapists and cut long-term rehabilitation expenses, both significant obstacles to continuous patient care.

According to True, the platform combines OYMotion's neural sensing and signal decoding expertise with its own digital ecosystem, allowing real-time transmission of brainwave and muscle data. This enables robotic devices or prosthetics to perform movements that closely replicate natural human motion.

Ekaraj Panjavinin, head of Research and Innovation at True Corporation, noted the partnership aligns with the company's mission to create technologies that enhance quality of life.

"Merging Thai medical knowledge with world-class NeuroTech will be the foundation for making Thailand's rehabilitation healthcare a leading regional center," he said.

Ni Hualiang, founder and CEO of OYMotion, said the company specializes in affordable rehabilitation solutions using neural sensing and AI-powered signal recognition.

"Our goal is to transform traditional physical therapy into a smarter, more seamless process and establish a new benchmark for rehabilitation," he said.

True indicated the technology could help patients recover faster and gain greater independence, while allowing physicians to customize treatment using brain function data. Hospitals could also broaden rehabilitation service access while upholding care standards.

If adopted widely, the companies believe the initiative could help establish Thailand as a regional NeuroTech innovation hub.

Safe and Creative Media Development Fund Launches 'Media Mee Dee' Project

A new media literacy initiative called 'Media Mee Dee' launched on Thai television April 23 to help citizens identify misinformation and deepfakes amid rising digital fraud and cybercrime threats.

28 Apr Khaosod

The Safe and Creative Media Development Fund has officially launched the 'Media Mee Dee' project through the ZAAB TODAY program on 9 MCOT HD channel on April 23, 2025. The 'Media Mee Dee' initiative is designed as an accessible and comprehensive scoop-format program that delivers media literacy knowledge to the public in the digital era, building intellectual resilience so citizens can analyze, distinguish between, and consume media creatively and responsibly amid rapidly changing media environments.

Dr. Chamnaj Gamnee-udom, Vice Manager of the Safe and Creative Media Development Fund, stated that digital technology, particularly AI, is currently being used both constructively and maliciously. Deepfake technology, which can seamlessly forge voices and images, has intensified fraud and cybercrime problems. Meanwhile, most citizens lack the skills to analyze and critically evaluate media, making them easy targets. This situation has been a major driving force for developing the 'Media Mee Dee' project to build media immunity across society.

The 'Media Mee Dee' project offers comprehensive and contemporary media literacy skills, presenting accessible knowledge and strategies to counter harmful media through guidance from subject matter experts with direct field experience. This enables the public to develop skills in analyzing, distinguishing, and consciously consuming media, allowing them to counter new fraud schemes effectively and avoid becoming victims or spreading negative information.

The project aims to reduce damage from technology-related crimes affecting people's lives and property, creating intellectual immunity to help Thai citizens sustainably protect themselves and others. It also seeks to extend this knowledge to families and communities, building a truly safe and creative media ecosystem.

The 'Media Mee Dee' project consists of 30 scoop episodes providing knowledge on media consumption and enhancing media literacy, helping audiences distinguish between negative and positive media. It also incorporates Buddhist principles for mindful media consumption. The program airs on 9 MCOT HD through the ZAAB TODAY show (Monday-Friday, 14:05-14:56) every Monday and Wednesday, with live streaming available on Facebook (9 MCOT) and on-demand viewing via TikTok (ZAAB TODAY), Facebook (ZAAB TODAY), and YouTube (DTN Official).

28-Year-Old Woman Can't Hold Back, Gives Birth on Car—Doesn't Miss Chance to Check License Plate for Lottery Luck

A 28-year-old woman gave birth in a car on the way to hospital in Chachoengsao Province, with both mother and newborn daughter delivered safely by rescue workers. Lottery enthusiasts have since taken note of the vehicle's license plate for

28 Apr Khaosod

At 5:30 a.m. on April 28, 2026, the Banbueng Moral Rescue Unit received an emergency call reporting a pregnant woman in active labor in a vehicle. The incident occurred before reaching the Nong Chak traffic light on Highway 344, near the Nong Chak checkpoint, on the way to Banbueng in Chachoengsao Province. Rescue volunteers coordinated with nearby teams and contacted emergency medical personnel at Banbueng Hospital for assistance.

Upon arrival, they found a white Toyota sedan with license plate Kor 9939 (Lamphun province) parked in a lot near the Nong Chak checkpoint. In the back seat, they discovered the young woman lying flat with a newborn baby partially delivered, still connected by the umbilical cord. Responders immediately performed first aid, cut the umbilical cord, cleaned the infant, and wrapped her in a clean, soft towel.

According to the nurse who assisted with the delivery, the newborn is a healthy baby girl with strong lungs and vigorous cries. Both mother and baby required continued care at the hospital.

Supol, the father (surname withheld), 30 years old, explained that his wife, Siriluk (surname withheld), 28, began experiencing labor pains on April 27. After visiting Banbueng Hospital without delivering, they returned to their accommodation. When contractions resumed, a neighboring guest drove the expectant mother back to the hospital. However, only halfway through the journey from their lodging in Taldamn subdistrict, Banbueng District, Chachoengsao, his wife could no longer hold back and delivered the baby in the vehicle.

Supol expressed his excitement and relief that both his wife and newborn daughter—their second child—came through safely, though he hadn't yet prepared a name. He remained too overwhelmed to do much else.

The driver, who asked to be identified only as Aek, recounted hearing complaints of labor pain from the expectant mother as they approached the Nong Chak intersection. Within moments, he heard the infant crying from the back seat. He quickly found a place to park, and rescue services arrived shortly after to provide assistance.

This dramatic birth has not gone unnoticed by lottery enthusiasts, who have been eagerly noting down the vehicle's license plate number to try their luck in the May 2 lottery draw.

She and boyfriend Songkran Tetchanarong have discussed future plans, though they're still in the early conversation stage. Mind aims to have children within 2-3 years rather than waiting until 40, hoping to be young enough to be a friend-like figure to her children.

Aum Atichart and Diana Do Merit-Making at Star-Worshipping Ceremony, Luck Wins Motorcycle—License Plate Matches Home Registration Too

Actor Aum Atichart and Diana Fleepo won a motorcycle at a star-worshipping merit-making ceremony, with the license plate coincidentally matching Aum's home registration. Despite economic pressures from rising fuel and transportation costs,

28 Apr Khaosod

Actor Aum Atichart shared a moment accompanying young actress Diana Fleepo to a star-worshipping merit-making ceremony where their good fortune won them a motorcycle—and even more remarkably, the license plate matched his home vehicle registration. Despite facing mounting business pressures from rising transportation and fuel costs that have squeezed margins across industries, Aum remains committed to not reducing staff or raising prices. Speaking at the launch of the new Implant Dental Center at The Wireless Club in Bangkok, he updated reporters on how the economic conditions have impacted his operations while recounting the fortune-bringing ceremony with Diana. He also reflected on the recent Songkran festival, which he spent quietly at home with his mother and dogs, and discussed his deep care for his 102-year-old grandmother. When asked about Songkran, Aum said he stayed home the entire time, spending it with family and taking a well-deserved rest after traveling extensively beforehand. He emphasized the importance of caring for elderly family members, particularly his grandmother who turned 102 this year. "I gave her money as a gift—she loves money as rewards. Even though she can't go shopping, elderly people feel good when their children and grandchildren give them money. She has constant care at home and a nurse looking after her," he explained. When discussing how to keep her spirits high, Aum noted that his grandmother doesn't suffer from depression but is bedridden after a fall in her nineties that damaged her bones. Interestingly, her lifestyle contradicts typical health-conscious practices—she enjoys watching television and sweets, living quite differently from health-focused routines. "She drank sweetened condensed milk and such drinks in her youth. Healthcare wasn't really her concern. She doesn't drink much anymore, though she had some in her nineties when she was more mischievous," he said. Regarding business impacts from current geopolitical tensions and their effect on transportation, Aum acknowledged severe consequences across all sectors, with logistics costs hitting particularly hard.

Energy Ministry Offers Tips on Saving Electricity and Getting the Most Value

Thailand's Energy Ministry has released practical guidance on reducing household electricity bills by identifying which appliances consume the most power and recommending behavioral changes for different usage patterns. Water heaters top the list at up to 23.5 baht per hour, while the ministry advises using high-consumption devices only when necessary and consolidating usage of cyclical appliances like washing machines for maximum savings.

27 Apr Khaosod

On April 28, the Energy Ministry's Department of Alternative Energy Development and Efficiency announced recommendations for appropriate electricity use to keep bills manageable. The ministry broke down savings strategies by usage patterns, noting that real savings are possible through behavioral changes.

For high-consumption appliances—use briefly but effectively: - Water heater (13.5–23.5 baht/hour) - Iron (3.5–10 baht/hour) - Vacuum cleaner (6–8 baht/hour) - Deep fryer (3.5–6.44 baht/hour)

Behavior to adjust: Avoid leaving devices running unattended. Use only when necessary and turn off immediately.

For continuous-use appliances—the longer you use them, the more you need to manage: - Air conditioner (2.5–6 baht/hour): Set temperature to 26-27°C and use a fan to assist. Turn off when not in the room.

For cyclical-use appliances—combine uses for better value: - Washing machine (2–8 baht/hour): Instead of washing small loads repeatedly, combine clothes and wash once for greater savings.

For low-consumption appliances—use comfortably but with discipline: - Fan (0.15–0.25 baht/hour) - Air purifier (0.09–0.20 baht/hour) - Television (0.40–1 baht/hour) - Refrigerator (0.30–0.40 baht/hour)

These can run continuously but should be turned off when not in use to reduce accumulated costs.

Carrick Insists Manchester United Not Complacent Despite Champions League Qualification Push – Praises Casemiro and Bruno

Manchester United secured a crucial 2-1 victory over Brentford at Old Trafford, bringing them within two points of clinching a Champions League qualification spot with four matches remaining. Manager Michael Carrick praised the performances of Casemiro and Bruno Fernandes while emphasizing that the team cannot afford to be complacent despite their strong position in the Premier League standings.

27 Apr Khaosod

Manchester United manager Michael Carrick said the Red Devils are well-positioned to earn a UEFA Champions League ticket for next season after beating Brentford 2-1, but the team must keep fighting. He also commended the efforts of key midfielders Casemiro and Bruno Fernandes.

United claimed a narrow 2-1 victory over Brentford at Old Trafford in the English Premier League on April 27. The win brought the Red Devils' tally to 61 points from 34 matches, maintaining third place in the standings. According to BBC reports, United need just two more points from their remaining four matches to secure a Champions League spot for next season. Their next fixture is a home clash against Liverpool in the rivalry match on May 3.

After the match, Carrick discussed their approach to securing European football's biggest competition: "It's not guaranteed. We weren't favorites at certain points this season. Right now we're in a good position and we want to finish as high as we can in the league to keep that push going."

"Today was about the three points," he added. "We have an important game against Liverpool coming up, and we can look forward to that."

The 44-year-old manager also praised his two key midfielders, Casemiro, who scored the opening goal, and Bruno Fernandes, who assisted the second goal for Benjamin Sesko's finish. "Casemiro scores important goals for us regularly. Casemiro and Bruno have a great relationship," Carrick said.

"We score in almost every game and Bruno is crucial to that. He might pick up another assist or two, and he can also score himself."
